I worked there for over a year, but I recently resigned. For such a giant company, it's actually quite nice to work for them and they have excellent benefits. As a consumer, I still really enjoy them. I drink a lot of coffee but I'm not a coffee snob like some folks. I don't drink it black and I can't down straight espresso without scrunching my face in disgust. lol That being said, they have a huge selection of drinks and flavors to choose from so that even though I have my favorites, there is always something new for me to try. I will say though, almost everything there is RIDICULOUSLY overpriced. When I worked there I would get everything for free. Since I left about a month ago I think I have only gone to Starbucks 2 times. lol I ain't got that kinda money! >.< It's like being a pack-a-day smoker, and it has about the same effect on your health.
In that example, I think it's roughly the same. But many people (myself included) drink a bit more lavishly. lol But even so, if you're spending $4 a day, 5 [work]days a week, then that's an $80 bill at the end of the month. Or almost $1,000 at the end of the year. My drinks are more like $5-6 (the shame). So it would be like an extra ~$110 per month and I'm in debt already as it is. heh Being dirt poor just makes me think about stuff like that. Every time I can get by without spending five dollars adds up when the bills come due. I hate living this way, but it is what it is. P.S. I realize I'm not "dirt poor" by some standards. lol I have an apartment and the computer I'm writing you on now. But at the end of every month I consistently have less money than I owe and the credit card debt climbs higher and higher. It sucks.
now. for the Jesse reality show.

Jesse Thompson oh. a large latte here (comparable to your average medium there) is $4 a cup on average. is it more expensive there?
